Then what about this: the more you try and keep me "safe", the more I'm gonna throw myself into things, dangerous or not.

That's what I mean by not working with me.

Why! Why is that so wrong?

Why is it that when I try to help, all that happens is everything gets even more fucked up?!

Because that's not helping. What you're asking for isn't "working with you," it's "be a nice little boy and go hide in the closet while the big brave adults act like they can handle it any better than you could."

It's insulting.

The last time someone acted like that, she lost an eye.

She was only twelve. She didn't deserve that. I should've just told them all to go away.

You can't save everyone from their own stupid mistakes. They'll happen one way or the other eventually, whether you're there or not.

[ He keeps hearing things that are more or less along the line of what Danny says now, in this here mg. He has not believed a single line. ]

It wasn't her fault. It was mine.

I screwed up. It was my fault a lot of people got hurt.

I'm not going to let it happen again.

[ Danny has to close his eyes and massage his temples like he is physically restraining himself from violence ]

Quit acting like you're the only thing standing between me and my life being ruined! You're not that big of a deal.

If my life's going to get ruined, it'll be because of me. And what I decide to do. You've got nothing to do with it!

[ danny WILL fuck around and he WILL find out!!! ]

[ Logically he knows he has absolutely no control over Danny's life and also that he's never going to like. Physically hold Danny back from doing stuff but. He just can't ever bring himself to just say 'okay, you're on your own'. It would be spiteful of him to say so, and no matter what, he just can't bring himself to that line. ]

...

Sorry. I guess you just feel worse now.

Mostly I just wanna punch you in the face.

......

[ Just looks at him because like, incredibly enough, he's not enough of a self-down masochist to actually INVITE Danny to punch him, so it's more like looking to see if he's actually going to go through with that. ]

Relax, I'm not gonna. People would ask questions and I don't wanna deal with that.

It's a high-tension place.

Things are stressful.

Are you...trying to get me to punch you?

No, I'm just speaking generally...

Believe it or not, I'm not a fan of getting hurt.

Well you sure make it sound like you do.

Okay, Danny.

[ Just doesn't bother with a counterpoint anymore. ]

[ YAAAYYYYY I BROKE THE SOCIAL INTERACTION FINALLY ]
